Overview:Of all the Frank Zappa tours, the spring of 1975 is the most unusual and frustrating. The performances could range from absolutely exhilarating to rather drab with slopping renditions of composed “core” pieces like “Advance Romance” and “Willie The Pimp” played in the midst of brilliant improvisations by both Zappa and Captain Beefheart and the other musicians in the band. Add to this the paucity of really good recordings, and the frustration is obvious. Zappa’s April 26th show in Providence had never circulated before Lampinski’s tape surfaced recently. Not only is this arguably the best sounding show from the tour, it’s a tight and enjoyable performance. This is the second instalment of two from that ground breaking performance.
